Chapter 14
Macy/
We all walked aimlessly for what seemed like hours but no one wanted to speak up. Rachel needs rest and time to process the anger inside of her. Marius lost his voice to be him which im grateful for but something just doesn't sit right with me.
" Let's set up camp and rest a little."
No one acknowledged my words but they moved like robots all the same. Soon we had a little camp set up so we could recuperate ourselves. Rachel immediately excused herself to be alone which I didn't want but she needed it the most. Leaving me with Marius and this awkward silence.
" Rachel knows Gloria and Duke but doesn't know you?."
" My family values strength and I value freedom... The time I decided to return it was too late, I still feel guilty for it all. I never thought Duke would harm her or our people like that."
The mixed emotions gave rise to his voice as he was still battling inside himself. What could make someone so hungry for power to commit

Macy/The decision was easy before because I lost control when Nathan was in danger. But things are different this time, not just the circumstances but also the enemies. I was prepared to protect Rachel first and escape secondly if that was even possible. The way my instincts alerted me to everything happening around me enhanced by my heightened senses I was settling into a predator once more. Would he forgive me for causing him more problems I wonder." The rumors are unbelievably true after all. This means that the true Alpha has also been sighted. However, I expected this to be more difficult."His words couldn't reach me I was too focused and tense as the hunters moved closer. I wanted to kill them because that's what my instincts were telling me. I was afraid to make the first move but it didn't matter when a shot rang out loudly. My body reacted to the searing heat that pierced my flesh guided by a silver bullet. My reaction speed was lacking but I know I

Macy/When we arrived new faces surrounded us which must mean he succeeded. It was a ray of hope with what we have to deliver in news. When we entered the main room a towering woman was at its center and her eyes were powerful. I didn't notice right away but both Gloria and Rachel took a knee bowing before her. I had no idea who she was or why she deserved such respect but I followed them." Ah, you return... We have the forces now to handle Duke and many others are siding with us."" At least one of you doesn't know me so let me clear that up. I am Maxine and it seems more than enough disturbances are happening. We came after Theo pleaded his case but looking at you three... Hmm, what developments do you have for me."I didn't know how to address her question because I didn't understand werewolf and hunter relations fully." My name is Gloria... Allow me to apologize deeply for my family's blunders...Duke is my brother."" From the looks of

Abicus Chapter 17Macy/We rushed to the commotion we heard hoping the ones responsible didn't encounter Tj or Rachel. The moment we entered the back room Rachel was fighting another injured hunter, surprisingly holding his own. The words of Maxine echoed in my head as my body moved between them blocking them both from continuing. It was clear he was only being defensive but Rachel was trying to kill him." Enough Rachel, Calm down."" The hell are you doing, Macy. He's clearly a hunter, our enemy."" Nothings ever that simple, you should know that. Kai and I Just saw other hunters, Killed by another faction of hunters."My words were enough to settle her down but she was still heated. I turned to face the wounded but frightened man before me. He was still guarded which was expected." My name is Macy, can you tell me what happened while I dress that wound. It needs attention."He was weighing my words but trust wasn't easily g

Macy/After she calmed down enough we moved to the little living room area to talk. Her name was Carol and she knew Terry for many years. From what I was told, Alexis wasn't always this bad she used to walk and express herself. But as she got older she slowly got bedridden and her mother tried to find a cure. No one would come out this far and some listened to the symptoms to offer her a small hope. Medical equipment she couldn't afford because this village wasn't making money, it was self-sufficient. Because of this many left for the cities but Terry never had that option with a sick child.When Alexis turned thirteen she became unresponsive but alive. It was described like she entered a dream state but never woke up or responded. That's when Terry got desperate for help she spent her mornings and half the evening with Alexis. But Carol took over while Terry went out to walk miles without rest to any city or town she could. The desperation was expected of a mother who

Macy/Kai came here for a reason but he clearly has forgotten what that was. I had no intention of influencing him on this choice so the towel was held in front of myself. Seth had given us the east abandoned wing which would give us the privacy needed. But Kai was more fascinated by looking and tracing invisible lines across my body. Moving softly across the room till I was standing right in front of him waiting to see what he would do. It's clear he is hungry and with a practiced hand, he moved deftly across my skin. He was good with his hands but the longer he spent admiring my skin and tracing lines the more I noticed the shaking.His hands may be practiced but he was in unknown water beyond this point. Like a barrier for him, he avoided touching anything hidden by the towel. While I didn't want to influence him I didn't wish to stop him either so I let the towel fall freely. His hands stopped instantly which only made his nervous shaking more noticeable to see. It

Macy/Everyone was tense and awkward traveling together, perhaps not my best suggestion. The hunters that we traveled with seemed open and friendly but it was a little strained. Like they didn't know what to expect to happen next."Well as you know I am Macy and This is Kai. We are gonna be traveling together for a little bit so we can at least get to know one another.""Yeah, that makes sense, can't blame us for being a little skittish. But Seth made the call so can't be all bad... I'm Jen and this is Mac. He tends to be more of a slow to warm-up type.""Kai is the same way since he still hasn't warmed up to me."The jab pulled the funniest reaction from Kai which had everyone laughing lightly. I call it well-deserved payback for last night anyway."I warm up just fine to people. I just don't like talking too much around strangers.""Yeah which I'm still a stranger apparently, and when you do speak it's all robotic. Or maybe more acc
A Luna's Strength Chapter 20/ Part Two
Macy/Everything played out like a fantasy story, it was the way steam clung to her skin hiding away what I wanted to see most. The water as her feet touched the floor was undisturbed almost like she hadn't entered the hot spring. Being locked up inside of a castle was surely enough to drive anyone's desires crazy. This would be my second encounter since coming out this far but perhaps this will produce results. With my eyes settled on her own, I watched as she moved ever closer to me. While the glasses did her justice before now it's like this setting enhances her eyes further. I waited once more patiently for her decision with much anticipation." I didn't expect to see you so calm and restrained... Obedient nearly."The way her words came out followed by a light chuckle felt teasing. I was far from obedient but I wasn't going to lavish one uncertain especially after Kai." Consider this a lesson... Patience just shows the power it takes to control one'

Macy/Since I had nothing else to do retiring seemed the best option till Seth finished up. Which left me with my thoughts and figuring out everything I pushed back. On one hand, I still needed to find Rachel and Tj to make sure they are okay. On the other was Alexis who I want to help but the cost seemed unknown at best. While it's clear I was expected to die and be reborn what wasn't clear was the how or what I lose and gain. They haven't reached out lately either which is concerning if nothing else. If I tried explaining this to someone would they call me crazy for wanting to sacrifice myself for a stranger.A lot of things had been pushed back which is starting to add up and become problematic. The one thing I no longer think about is running to Nathan. While he should know it's also true the problems are worldwide currently. All I can do is solve the issues here and hope that it's enough to fix everything. Stepping just beneath the rush of water seemed to silence
